my 01' f4i is makin a clunking noise up front now when i hit the front brakes and whiles im riding a stoppie it will do it alot i tightened the calipers and wheel and all that nothing was loose seems like its coming from the forks, anyone else have this problem just started doin it since i learned fast stoppies i wheelie alot too sometimes come down hard, no fluid leak like a seal is gone tho!

sounds like a problem with your triples, sometimes that large nut that is on the upper triple clamp comes loose and allows the headset to rock back and forth in the steering stem..that is the clunking.. or with a lot of abuse the bearings may need to be repacked...I had the same problem on my f2..I replaced the bearings and the clunking is gone.....good luck check out the pics

Sounds like headset bearings
